AlbakiReads Editorial

A visual-poetic record of contemplation and association

Bonny Finberg’s Sitting Book gathers handwritten phrases, aphorisms, punctuation-based drawings, and cut-up manuscript material created during periods of solitary contemplation. Designed by Barbara Rosenthal, the book arranges these elements into individual collaged spreads, giving the page itself an active role in the work. The emphasis falls on the movement between thought, gesture, and visual arrangement: fragments remain distinct while forming shifting constellations of language and marks. With its large-print paperback format and concise length, it presents an art object shaped by free association as much as by conventional reading order.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in visual poetry and artist’s books
  • Those drawn to collage, handwritten text, and experimental page design
  • Adults exploring free association and contemplative creative practice

Book overview

SITTING BOOK unites cutup manuscript phrases, punctuation drawings and random aphorisms conceived and written freehand by the poet Bonny Finberg while sitting alone in contemplation.

Her movements of thought and hand combine to create individual spreads collaged by this book's designer, Barbara Rosenthal, to create maps of free association comprising public and private possibilities.
